Chapter 0010: The Daylight Demon Possession

The reason given by the old village chief is indeed plausible; the funeral is to be held within a day, and there is still the need to prepare the items for the mourning ceremony, which leaves very little time

Although everyone was surprised in their hearts upon hearing this, they did not take it seriously. After all, Liu Quan was now a ghost, and his mental state was clearly abnormal. Words spoken by a ghost are merely the ramblings of a ghost; how could such words be trusted

Wang Shuzhen, who could not be subdued by three to five strong men, has now encountered a worthy opponent; the two are pulling each other's hair, scratching each other's faces, and fighting in a chaotic manner.

My grandfather threw her a yellow paper talisman and told her to go back, burn it, and drink it. These past few days, her energy has been low, and she should not run around at night

While hitting and cursing, saying things like "It's not because of you, you filthy woman, that I won't die" and "What a grievance it is for me to die"

Later, the village discussed it for several months, and as time gradually passed, people began to forget about it, and the matter came to a conclusion

Without saying a word, the old man picked up a pair of chopsticks and clamped down on Wang Shuzhen's right hand index finger, twisting it forcefully

There are accounts of Liu Quan boasting about the casino back in the day, as well as stories of him cursing his father and his elder brother's wife. Now that these matters have been brought to light by certain individuals, they suddenly appear to be fraught with inconsistencies.

Liu Quan was getting carried away with his own boasting when he suddenly heard Liu Tai's cries. He immediately became furious and slapped Liu Tai's face with a loud smack, cursing as he did so, saying that the old man was biased... that he treated your eldest son much better than me, and that the old man has long wanted me dead; otherwise...

In the countryside, occurrences of possession by spirits and the return of souls during the seventh day after death are commonly heard and seen. People merely wish to confirm whether Liu Quan has indeed returned and possessed the body of Wang Shuzhen

Wang Shuzhen expressed her heartfelt gratitude and hurried away, turning back to secretly send my grandfather twenty yuan.

At that time, the Liu family was in complete disarray, and Liu Quan's funeral was entirely organized by my grandfather. As a result, in broad daylight, Liu Quan returned to his spirit, which left my grandfather somewhat embarrassed.

Of course, this is all a matter for later discussion. With such a commotion at Liu Quan's funeral, it could be considered completely unfeasible to proceed. My grandfather promptly assisted the Liu family in performing the rites, and that afternoon, he sought help from the villagers to carry him out for burial.

I do not know whether they still doubt if there is anything wrong with the Liu family, but I have always maintained my suspicions

When everyone asked, he immediately crossed his legs, took a small cigarette between his lips, and began to chat with everyone as if he were telling tall tales.

It was fine when she didn't help, but once she did, Liu Quan went straight for Xie Meizhi, delivering a flurry of slaps to her face

Liu Laoye fainted on the spot from fright

Those who are familiar with Liu Quan need not be mentioned, as they immediately jumped up at the first sound, for that voice was none other than Liu Quan's voice

My grandfather also glanced at him, seemingly whispering something.

Liu Dazhuang slapped his forehead: "That's right, it seems I was overthinking it. Which family can finish all these tasks in a single day? I was wrong, I apologize to everyone. Let's drink, drink..."

However, those who were perceptive around immediately recognized that this woman was spewing foul language. Her voice was youthful and coarse, and as she spoke, her throat moved as if her Adam's apple was vibrating

To buy things, one must head towards the direction of my school at the village entrance. On the other side of Dongshan and the back mountain, there is nothing but a cemetery; how could something happen there? Why would they ask the couple to buy? On Dongshan, who else has been buried by the Liu family besides Liu Quan?

Moreover, the direction in which they are returning is towards the back mountain of the East Mountain leading from the village

The old gentleman, who was originally singing in the house, heard the commotion in the courtyard and quickly rushed out. With a single glance, he immediately understood what had happened

Then Wang Shuzhen let out a loud cry and fainted.

Back then, it was this courtyard, and it was these people, except that Wang Shuzhen did not come. This woman was terrified of the Liu family's courtyard, to the point that she would walk around it. The events of that year had become a source of deep anxiety for her, so how could she dare to come back

The clothes were all torn, and the two of us were holding onto each other, rolling on the ground.

The villagers began to drink heartily, exchanging cups one after another, seemingly having forgotten what had just happened

Surrounded by a circle of onlookers enjoying the spectacle, this young man remains completely oblivious, believing that these people genuinely admire him. He boasts extravagantly about various games such as Dou Di Zhu, Zha Jin Hua, Baccarat, and Show Hand, speaking with great flair and self-satisfaction.

The woman headed straight for the kitchen with a peculiar expression on her face, carrying a large bag in her hand, which was bulging with an unknown content. However, I could tell it wasn't very heavy, and it certainly wasn't groceries.

He was still stammering as he said: "I apologize, I just went out to take care of some matters, and I have just returned to offer everyone a cigarette"

My grandfather and the old village chief nodded to each other and turned to walk into the main room where the coffin was located

Her lips trembled, yet she could not utter a single word

The death of Liu Laoye must have some hidden circumstances. It is likely related to that dead ghost Liu Quan

When the two of them returned, their expressions were not good; on the contrary, they appeared somewhat flustered.

Everyone believes that there is no escape now; this kid must undoubtedly be Liu Quan's reincarnation

Do not be deceived by the fact that Liu Quan is possessed by a woman named Wang Shuzhen; the strength she possesses is astonishing. In the past, Liu Quan appeared frail and sickly, to the point where a mere push could send him tumbling. Now, having become a spirit, he has instead become formidable, and even several burly men are unable to restrain him.

At this moment, Liu Quan, who is attached to Wang Shuzhen, is pursuing the dream of becoming a gambling god

When I woke up a little while later, I was able to speak normally and my mind was clear, but I had no idea what I had done and I asked the people around me what had happened

Who would have thought that Liu Dazhuang would bring it up again today, prompting people to once more dredge up the events of those years from the river of memory

With a loud "crack," it was almost as if Wang Shuzhen's bones were about to be broken.

It is not surprising that she suddenly jumped up; the key issue is that this woman was also shouting loudly, pointing her finger at Liu Laoye and scolding him

The main character appeared, and the old village chief glared fiercely at Liu Dazhuang, scolding: "You dog, just wait and see if I don't tear your filthy mouth apart."

The old village chief immediately shouted: "Alright, alright! Stop rambling over there. Old Liu passed away unexpectedly, and Liu Tai hasn't prepared anything. He's out busy buying things right now, so what are you all babbling about? He'll be back soon."

This woman is named Wang Shuzhen, and she is known for being the most unruly in the village, often causing a scene and being quite boisterous in her pursuit of attention.

The man and woman are Liu Tai and his wife, Xie Meizhi, who have just returned.

By the way, there is also Liu Laolao, but at that time, Liu Laolao was cremated. In her own words, she said that she was burned in one go, and her ashes were directly disposed of at the funeral home to save her family some trouble

Because I was standing on the ladder, I could see everything when Liu Tai and Xie Meizhi returned

At this time, it is understandable that the Liu family is not at home.

What are you cursing about, you old fool? You never spent money when you were alive, and now that I am dead, you still keep whining and refuse to arrange my funeral

Liu Tai cried out in anguish, cursing Liu Quan, who was on Wang Shuzhen, saying, "You little brat, you have died, and the funeral has been arranged for you. Why are you back to scare people?"

A group of people burst into laughter, each taking turns to start eating.

At that moment, when Liu Tai's wife, Xie Meizhi, saw her man being beaten, she immediately rushed up to help.

Liu Tai, frightened, patted Liu Laoye's back and chest repeatedly until he finally managed to wake the old man up, who then pointed at Wang Shuzhen

Everyone was dumbfounded at that moment, thinking that this woman was just playing tricks and causing a commotion

Because Wang Shuzhen's hobby is gossiping, which has nothing to do with playing cards or gambling, how could she possibly know so many professional terms from the card game scene

The people around teased her, saying that she was possessed by a ghost, and the girl was so frightened that her little face turned pale, almost kneeling down to my grandfather

As a group of people grew increasingly loud in their discussions, becoming more and more absurd, the entire courtyard began to buzz with commotion

As soon as these thoughts arose, the people in the courtyard began to discuss among themselves one by one

If a woman truly gets into it, she can be much more intense than a man

Do not be fooled by Liu Quan's lack of ambition; when it comes to casinos, he speaks with great enthusiasm. The villagers have not seen much of the world, while this young man has been to the grand casinos in the city. Although he merely stood on the periphery waiting to collect red money, every gambler harbors a dream of sitting in the main seat, commanding the scene with authority, does he not?

Rural people are superstitious, but there are also those who are bold. In such a commotion, some were so frightened that they ran away on the spot, while others joked with Wang Shuzhen, asking her about matters related to the card game.

I still remember that it was in the afternoon, around four or five o'clock, when everyone was having a meal. Suddenly, at one table, a plump woman jumped up.

Liu Quan is a gambling addict; as soon as he mentions playing cards, he can hardly wait to set up a table and play for three days and three nights

At that moment, a man and a woman entered the Liu family courtyard. As soon as the man stepped inside, he tore open a pack of cigarettes and began to distribute them one by one.

I raised my head and quietly glanced over, noticing that both the old village chief and my grandfather had noticeably poor expressions, especially the old village chief. He looked at my grandfather with a worried gaze, as if he had something to say but found it inconvenient to express.
